Added a new sun shade today

[Chriscac0812]

I got this delivered last night off of Amazon and tried it out today. It fits great and should definitely get the job done. Not much light is coming through the windshield when you put it on. Like I said, the fit is perfect and I like how it has a nice Velcro strip to keep it rolled up. There was also a coupon when I bought it, so that helped.

I have the same item produced by Mabett that I like. I did make a small mod to mine. I added a small square of Velcro to the top of the window centered on either side of the mirror housing. Correspondingly, there are slightly larger pieces of Velcro attached to the top of the shade.. I don’t have a problem with the weight of the shade pulling the top down toward the interior if I don’t carefully wedge along the perimeter.

From your picture looks like it's able to stay up without flipping visors down, does it actually stay up well like that for extended period?

IMO that is an important usability feature for me, the one I got from Amazon is slightly undersized and requires visors down so I'm looking for a better replacement.

I took a chance on the Mabbet sunshade when they were offering 30% off. I fought with it to tuck in around the edges, and never really got it to stay in place at the top. And having to roll it up was another issue, when I've always used the type that accordions or the type that uses a spring metal frame that opens and collapses instantly. I'm taking mine to the UPS store tomorrow. I'm glad to hear that some of you have had a better experience than I have.

When I lived in Floriduh, every other car had one. They cost less than $5. Banks and hardware stores gave away a cheap cardboard version.
$40 for TEN of them would be a good deal.

$40 for a foil wrapped piece of cardboard? I'm in the wrong business.
